Next Guild Wars 2 stress test set for August 21

On Tuesday, August 21, between the usual time of noon and 4:00 PM Pacific, ArenaNet will be conducting the fifth Guild Wars 2 stress test this month. Like always, be mindful of broken features and other bugs, because the devs are still working on the game while you play.

Keen an eye out for in-game announcements too, because Anet might need your help for specific tasks. Participants in the last test might remember being summoned to Queensdale and Divinity's Reach by the giant on-screen text.

Anyone who pre-purchased the game can take part, and characters will not be wiped this time either. Tomorrow's stress test will also include Spanish text localization.
